Fluor-uvite

Bush Farm, Gouverneur, St. Lawrence County, New
York. Collected by Michael Walter, July 10, 2011. These are the few remaining
specimens from an important find in 2011 that was written about by myself, Drs.
George Robinson and Steve Chamberlain in the 2016, vol. 91, no. 6, Nov/Dec.
issue ofRocks and Minerals
Magazine. On pages 521-527 we describe numerous important finds, however I
believe this to be the best of all those many (almost 200) years. Rich brown
tourmalines with noteworthy gemmy areas of facet grade material were recovered.
These represent the finest fluor-uvites known... and they are even fluorescent!This piece measures in at 3 x
2.7 x 1.5 cm. It has one of the rare terminations, being far steeper than
normal, which is also damage free. There are strong contacts around the base
from where it grew in a cluster with now crumbled crystals. Thankfully this
rare example survived! $200
